Monitoring
The System 5 monitor system accommodates multiformat outputs up to 7.1 channels.
There are seven monitor outputs (see figure below):
• Main Control Room and Mon A (7.1 max)
• Alt 1 (5.1 max)
• Alt 2, Mon B, C, and D route two busses (stereo)
Mon A, B, C, and D are used for SLS/Cue feeds.
Monitor output source selection can either intercancel (only one source to a monitor output), or sum (multiple sources). The
Control Room monitor outputs can be folded down from their multichannel formats (see “Folddown” on page 31).
Monitoring Matrix
Group bus outputs are normally monitored on the Strips by assigning them to Mix busses, but can be routed using external inputs
and PatchNet if they require direct monitoring.
